Some questions under current study include the location of stagnation points, stability properties of the waves, periodic and solitary waves, numerical computation of the waves, and the occurrence of overhanging waves.Īnother focus of my research is the instabilities of plasmas for which collisions are rare. Recently I have proven the existence of many continua of large-amplitude water waves. I study exact waves modeled by the Euler equations without assuming shallow water or small-amplitude approximations. Vorticity indicates the presence of eddies in the water. This is a free-boundary problem because the water surface is an unknown. One of my current research projects is the study of water waves with vorticity.
Some of his specific research areas have been scattering theory in electromagnetism and acoustics, stability of waves, relativistic Yang-Mills theory, kinetic theory of plasmas, theory of fluids, and water waves.
They are modeled by hyperbolic, elliptic or dispersive partial differential equations. The main focus of his research has been the analysis of nonlinear waves.
